Regaining honor.
I'm honor level zero currently, which means I'll still be there when season 8 begins. (Actually level zero and locked, which is basically level -1 for all intents and purposes.)
From what I know, getting your honor level back up involves playing a lot of games without being flagged/reported. Fair enough.
If I want to gradually work out my tilting problem, though, I can't just spam tons of games. I need to take breaks. Except if I'm taking frequent breaks to keep myself from overloading, it's probably going to take me a seriously long time to actually get back to honor level 2, let alone 3 or higher.
It seems to me like the lower honor levels should work similarly to how ranked decay does. Like, make it time-based so long as you actually are playing games within short time frames, instead of just purely # of games played.
That way you can work at it gradually and pace yourself, and still actually be making progress.
